<h1 align="center">E2E Testing</h1>

## Prerequisites:

### Install Ginkgo
```bash
$ go get -u github.com/onsi/ginkgo/ginkgo
```

### Setup backup storage configuration
To get started, the test suite expects 2 files to use as configuration for
Velero's backup storage. One file that contains your credentials, and another
that contains additional configuration options (for now the name of the
bucket).

The default test suite expects these files in `/var/run/oadp-credentials`, but
can be overridden with the environment variables `OADP_AWS_CRED_FILE` and
`OADP_S3_BUCKET`.

To get started, create these 2 files:
`OADP_AWS_CRED_FILE`:
```
aws_access_key_id=<access_key>
aws_secret_access_key=<secret_key>
```

`OADP_S3_BUCKET`:
```json
{
  "velero-bucket-name": <bucket>
}
```

## Run all e2e tests
```bash
$ make test-e2e
```
## Run selected test
You can run a particular e2e test(s) by placing an `F` at the beginning of a
`Describe`, `Context`, and `It`. 

```
 FDescribe("test description", func() { ... })
 FContext("test scenario", func() { ... })
 FIt("the assertion", func() { ... })
```

These need to be removed to run all specs.

## Debugging e2e tests with Visual Studio

Optionally developers can debug the ginko driven tests in tests/e2e with [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/debugging). 

* Ensure you have a properly configured launch.json in your .vscode directory. Ensure that your kubeconfig provides access to the k8s or OpenShift environment.

Example Configuration: **launch.json**
```json=
{
    // Use IntelliSense to learn about possible attributes.
    // Hover to view descriptions of existing attributes.
    // For more information, visit: https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=830387
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [
        {
            "name": "Launch Package Test",
            "type": "go",
            "request": "launch",
            "mode": "test",
            "program": "${fileDirname}",
            "env": {
                "KUBECONFIG": "/home/user/my_kubeconfig",
                "KUBERNETES_MASTER": "http://localhost:8080"
            }
        }

    ]
}

```

* The [e2e_suite_test.go](https://github.com/openshift/oadp-operator/blob/master/tests/e2e/e2e_suite_test.go) file must be overridden with parameters specific to your environment and aws buckets.
    * The critical paramaters to change are under `func init()`:
        * cloud
        * s3BucketFilePath
        * namespace
        * region
        * provider

Example Configuration: **e2e_suite_test.go**
```go=
func init() {
	flag.StringVar(&cloud, "cloud", "/home/user/oadp_e2e/aws_credentials", "Cloud Credentials file path location")
	flag.StringVar(&s3BucketFilePath, "s3_bucket", "/home/user/oadp_e2e/oadp_s3_bucket", "AWS S3 data file path location")
	flag.StringVar(&namespace, "velero_namespace", "oadp-operator", "Velero Namespace")
	flag.StringVar(&region, "region", "us-east-1", "BSL region")
	flag.StringVar(&provider, "provider", "aws", "BSL provider")
	flag.StringVar(&credSecretRef, "creds_secret_ref", "cloud-credentials", "Credential secret ref for backup storage location")
	flag.StringVar(&instanceName, "velero_instance_name", "example-velero", "Velero Instance Name")
	timeoutMultiplierInput := flag.Int64("timeout_multiplier", 1, "Customize timeout multiplier from default (1)")
	timeoutMultiplier = 1
	if timeoutMultiplierInput != nil && *timeoutMultiplierInput >= 1 {
		timeoutMultiplier = time.Duration(*timeoutMultiplierInput)
	}
}

```

* Note that your shell overrides documented [here](https://github.com/openshift/oadp-operator/blob/master/docs/developer/TESTING.md) are not accessable to Visual Studio Code.

### Execute

* Ensure the file you intend to set break points on has focus in Visual Studio Code
* Set break points as needed in Visual Studio Code
* Launch and debug according to Visual Studio Code's [debug instructions](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/debugging)
